not a good way to start a rally
k3yersoooout on the pitch OVER YOUR HEAD Kendry!

Good grief!

Nice AB Tony Montana
Juancho weako
Rally Boombaye, Rally Boombaye
Not even Juarning track on that one Juan

ouch!

LETS GO HALOS
7 fkn pitches
i'd throw that ball back at bradley
7 pitch inning for Lee...

holy crap

that IS Angels 2010 baseball

Batter’s box defense?

Vlad Who????

Matsui is on fire

Hey, Dono.

Do you thin it was a mistake for us to let Vlad go and sign Matsui instead? Because, you know, you’re not real clear about it, and I want to be sure.

Ha!
Glad you liked it opiejeanne.
all Matsui has to do is match Vlad's numbers in Texas and nobody would say crap.
Obviously you need a sarcasm detector.
Not to discourage anyone

But the Angels have been outscored 81-47 after the 6th inning.

That discouraged me.
Cornflakes piss ridden

thank you

So if our bullpen era was only 4 instead of 12

47 would be pretty good right? :)

So you're saying... we have a chance
they have almost zero come from behind victories after the 6th
It's not almost zero

It is zero. 0-21 when trailing after six.

Jesus

Get Lee out the game. Don’t give him a 7 pitch inning. Epic amounts of annoying.

It just occurred to me...

The Padres are the best team in SoCal right now. Waiting for the other signs of apocalypse coming.

We got rid of the good management team...

Black and Maddon…

(actually its a real testament to how good our staff have been this past decade, as 2 ex members are managing good teams this year)

Mariners announcers "Ichiro hits a bullet to short"

no lie

funny cuz I almost posted about how he hits some of the grossest looking flares for hits

to hear them talk you'd thing the sun rises out of his butt
Are you 100% sure it doesn't?
Well, Japan *is* the Land of the Rising Sun...
...and the sun comes up in the .....
Can we try to bean Lee while he is in the dugout
ʞ3yerout Figgy
Damn, Bell looks really good!
Bell looking good
Funny how Figgins goes back to being Figgins

once Kazmir is out of the game.

I blame Joe West
Obama made a phone call

and took care of that guy giving his Sox crap.

Ozzie's response #^&% & *%&*&) c _(_#@@$%^ ^&(*(#$!!!!
Did you see the Facebook page they started to get mlb to get rid of West?
Let's Go Trevor!
Let's go batter's box defense
Hasbro at the plate
We suck tonight.
It's more that Kaz sucked tonight.
There's still a game going on
OK...

SO FAR, we suck tonight.

I stand corrected
if there was a gold medal for sucking they'd be this years Olympic Champions
Bradley: Therapist's couch offense
Life is so much more entertaining when he Fails...
Waitaminnit!!!!!

Soth used the same reliever in 2 separate innings?? Is that allowed?

gameboy (MB) sucks too
checking in looks like Kaz decided to blow tonight
Cruised through two and melted down in the third
Really cruised through 2 and 2/3, and then melted down, which is even more annoying
Good point
second time through the order...they saw everything he had
...and swallow
he bent over too
block that kick
Hold that line
old joke, perfectly timed
Timing IS everything!
Never name your children

after board games

Or name them Madison Bumgarner.
long-duc-dong?
wang hung lo
lang wang

pronounced long

or Sterling Hitchcock
Why not? That's pornolicious.
Cuz I think the comment was never name your children...
Or thundercats characters
Why do you build me up buttercup baby...
Appropriate, since it's about a loser
time for a motherflippin' rally
I second that motion
Napoli time
Naps formula:

2 weeks of hot – 6 weeks of cold. feeling a chill

Let's Go Halos!
maybe see more than 7 pitches
Is the "good" Napoli over?
to early to tell its only been one crappy game he had a good game against toronto
same holes in the swing
he won't see that pitch again
Rally gnome?
there are no gnomes...not for 4-6 weeks (per the voucher)
Where's Rally Raaddad?

oh wait that didn’t work.

His video is my ringtone
trailing after six we're 0-22

The Rally Monkey is dead….bring on the gnome!

Blue squeezing the rookie
Eybar Fail
Way to not work the pitcher so that Lee got up to 100 pitches...major fail!
wow, another batch of weak efforts
This is one sad lil club.
Wow. I thought we were playing seattle
Francisco Rodriguez pitching
You see, what you've done Angel offense, is allowed Lee to throw 10 pitches.

Which keeps him under 100 pitches. And probably means he comes out for the 8th inning. Which means no runs in the 8th.

THIS WEAK-ASS DIVISION IS A DOUBLE EDGED SWORD

It’s kept the Angels in “contention”
It’s allowed them to live in obvious DENIAL

I'm not sure I can even put in words how feeble Eybar has been at the plate tonight...
so much for upside and range factor

I’d trade him for OC right now and he’s on fumes

the Angels are like Flight of the Conchords

No skills LINK

Bigsy said Aybar is not as bad was people would think....

0-4 tonight. Yeah.

…and he did such a good job of working counts and swinging at hitter’s pitches…

average overall, no clutch hitting, poor baseball IQ
Looks like we shoulda started Bell with FRod in relief...sheesh!
How about Bell guys

1.2 IP of no hit relief

I was impressed tonight
excellent JOB
Wait. 1.2 IP? Is Soth allowed to have a reliever go more than one inning?
New rule

Just implemented

if he enters before the seventh

then yes

Looked like a true sandwich pick tonight.

Rather than a bozo in a pickle.

k3yerout = Lopez
that was a filthy pitch

kid looks good

KRod3 looking decent too so far
3?

Isn’t this only our second Francisco Rodriguez?

Nice job Francisco
Rodreguez and Bell about 900 grand for both...Kaz about 9 mil
123 for FRod...and looked good doing it!

I’m going to go get another beer! Anyone want one?

Got anything stronger?
In HD....

…you could tell 1. that his uniform was brand new and 2. that he has hairy Robin Williams arms.

LOL

robviously!

He's also wearing Myspace's number

but you didn’t need HD for that

that made me spit out my tootsie roll
i'm working some zinfandel, but yeah i'll take one
I knew I shoulda taken 0 in the pregame picks...I was trying to be positive!
At least with Lee we are looking like shit against an ACTUAL Cy Young pitcher
way to think on the brightside
Good point
Bullpen...

move Fuentes into LH specialist role… Bell, Jepsen and close with Rodney?

We may need Bell to start

If Kazmir keeps sucking, we’ll put him on the DL with some mystery muscle strain or something.

A severe case of suckitis, maybe?
hip flexor is the current fav
"Kazmir placed on 60-day DL...

…with anxiety."

Will Bobby Brew actually make a pass this time up?
No, K looking again.
I hate Itchyhole
I hate Ichiro
He slid for that ball becauseeeeee............why?
It looks cool.

Kind of like Jeter and his jump throws

sells extra swag in Japan

every time he does that

Booby woulda caught that!
Bobby never would have caught that one
he'd still be chasin it
kicked it 3 times by now
then fell on it and impaled it up his butt
But Booby woulda!
Great AB by Howie

Lee is really pitching smart, hitting his spots.

Here comes the called K3
that's not much of a reach

I still wonder how
Kazmir gives up 6 runs against the Ms? The 2 run lead should’ve been enough against the Ms pathetic offense, but even they can hit meatballs. 2 run lead should’ve been enough.

Llike an unstoppable force versus an immovable object

Only this time it’s two really sucky things facing off. Our sucky pitcher sucks worse than their sucky offense.

good news...we get Felix tomorrow...

how do those Wheaties taste now?

we beat him before
Felix is overrated. Lee is the real deal, and has the Cy Young to back it up

but at least we have Weaver
to face him. At least he doesn’t give up 6 runs to a AA level offense club.

As we said about BWood early in the season...

At least it wasn’t a K

right field Torii
I would REALLY like to see a bottom of the 9th come from behind victory...

This team needs it badly!

Last game..

Oh wait.. that was a come from ahead victory.

we got no stones
Torii

trying to hit a grand slam with nobody on base

Well good news is, he's at 115 pitches
bad news..

it’s time for their closer

Wakamatsu's daughter comin in to close this one
Too many holes, too many weaknesses, not enough adjustments
OK, I still don't understand it. Can someone explain the "Del Taco Super Special Show"?
Shields pitching
he's still got it...

first pitch two bagger

Angels trying to tire out the Mariners for tomorrow by making them run laps around the bases now.
GW Bush

It’s called strategerie

Evil Shields
Calling him Evil Shields....

…implies there’s a benevolent Shields. I’ve seen no evidence of that.

release him now!

so we might be able to still remember the times when he helped the team

Who had zero in the pregame picks?
Who had 5/28 on the Shields DFA pool?
Scot Sheilds is looking the way Justin S. did
Ump totally missed the 2nd pitch...

musta blinked or something?

pitch 4 was K3...wow
when he was a good pitcher

he got that call

I had the honor of witnessing his last game in person.

What a thrill.

deer in the headlights stare

even he doesn’t think he’s going to get them out

Good news is Weaver is pitching tomorrow

Granted it’s against Felix now, but I still feel pretty good about tomorrow

Just turned it off...

I can’t stomach this crap anymore. Shields and Kazmir are pussies.

Salt Lake loses 8-0. Arkansas loses 16-4.

Epic flail. Just all in the family, folks.

SIlver threads aplenty in the youth movement though.

Just hard to be Bob Flanagan until 2012 though.

Not all bad.

Pat Corbin made his Rancho debut tonight and gave up 2 ER in 5.2 IP.
Ariel Pena pitched in Cedar Rapids for the first time and gave up 0ER in 6IP.
Trout was 2 for 5 and scored the game-tying run in the bottom of the ninth in Cedar Rapid’s win.

See comment above.
All our best talent is in Cedar Rapids

CR’s entire rotation is guys we have high hopes for.

Plus Reckling and Smith in Salt Lake are both 21 years old. So even though they’re getting killed this year, they’re still really young for AAA. They have time to work it out.

See comment above. (2012)

Fun to watch the kids, but the relief corps being two years away makes for tough stuff.

3 turds in the same punchbowl
figgy pilling on a old teamate
Scot didnt give him anything worth swinging at
time for shields to make a DL trip
Gubi, get real.... no chance in this one
So, how do the bases get cleared?

I’m thinking bases clearing triple into RF

Okay not quite
Main street fastball first pitch

next one will land in the seats

more power to the shields
Fuck You Scot Shields

I hope you never pitch another game in your life

at least you're not bitter
The guy was great for us for a long time.

Obviously he’s done, but we don’t need to hate him.

He’s not a Kazmir or GMJ who just showed up, killed our payroll, and hurt the team.

Screw you Shields, Screw you Sosh, Screw you Butcher

Get your shit together.

holy shit

thats the first out?!?!?!

Good news....

They ran the run-down play perfectly! wooohhooo!

I expected someone to trip doing it, just to add to the suck
if he would have tagged figgy first, would he have been out?

then he could have tagged Ichiro?

I thought I saw something about tagging the back runner first on MLB network

Last minute hope

Just finished this

epic waste of your time

and mine.

fffffffffffffffffffffuk

k3yerout

God I love it when he gets out! :D

Shields

has quickly tarnished his once great Angel legacy

Hey, Shields only gave up 2 runs
Gonna apologize in Advance Rev...

This team needs a RALLY GNOME something fierce…

who stole our 50,000 gnomes?
Arizona Border Patrol
I doubt they were made in Mexico.
that's how we're are funding the next FA signing

they are going to be stuffed with drugs ala Lost

shieldsy will turn the page
of which book?
in a very shitty book
hopefully in the NL

I’d love to see him land with the Cards next year where they have a real pitching coach

All books end.
so how long

before we hear about kazmir’s injury? if you can’t hold the mariners under 3 runs, you are either hurt or a spot starter

he's injured in between his ears
did his brain

tell his arm to stop throwing hard?

no it told him him to quit throwing his slider

which was his out pitch

im guessing he doesnt throw it

because he is hurt. same reason santana throws his differently now.
santana can still break a pinata with his fastball though, kazmir couldn’t wound an infant

I like how Kazmir allows 8 hits in 5.1 innings

 And Trevor Bell and Francisco Rodriguez kept the Mariners hitless through 2.2 innings

Bell did pretty well.
butcher hasn't had enough time with them

to teach them how to suck

The hope is that he'll continue to suck so bad

that Soth’s hand will be forced and he will have to get DFA’d

Rivera time...

just when it doesn’t matter

Rivera now o fer last 18?, what a shitbag
the 2000 in attendance

are super pumped to see a comeback

Who had 1 in the pregame picks?

;)

Okay Napoli, 6 run HR
if only it were possible.
So much for the Rally Gnome...

didn’t show up! Sound familiar?

our outfiled sucks

in every aspect of baseball … sweet billboards though, im pumped to see them all when i come down in june

this loss really makes we question whether this team can turn it around
some light beer will make this all better

mmmm, 67 calories

Oh well. Anyways,

did u guys see the ump try to DL Rivera by side kicking him on the knees?!

best thign that could happen to this club

willits’ bat could inject some life

lololol

You're the one!

That makes me barf.

So it's up to Weaver and Saunders now
